The Man with the Beautiful Eyes - Charles Bukowski

from the poem of the same name by Charles Bukowski

...and
we were afraid
then
that
all through our lives
things like that
would
happen,
that nobody
wanted
anybody
to be
strong and
beautiful
like that,
that
others would never
allow it,
and that
many people
would have to
die.

The Wisdom of Kelly

E before O except before E-I-E-I-O.
Feed a cold, starve for pizza. Starve a pizza, eat cold feet.
He who laughs last laughs West.
It's better to have loved and lost than never to have seen 'Lost in Space' at all.
It turns, therefore I am.
Make new thoughts, but keep the old, one is silver, and the other is old.
Mom and Dad are my relatives, therefore I am.
There, but for the flippers, go I.
They will never buy the cow if they can get the eggs for free.
Those who can - do, those who can't - do not.
Use a condom, go to jail.
from Bundyology

We should never let folk wisdom die away in these urbanated times, once gone this wisdom will be lost forever ....

If your'e standing in a field of sheep and it starts to rain...watch out for wet sheep.

So many Reasons to be Cheerful (Part 3)

Summer, Buddy Holly, the working folly

Good golly Miss Molly and boats

Hammersmith Palais, the Bolshoi Ballet

Jump back in the alley and nanny goats

18-wheeler Scammels, Domenecker camels

All other mammals plus equal votes

Seeing Piccadilly, Fanny Smith and Willy

Being rather silly, and porridge oats

A bit of grin and bear it, a bit of come and share it

You're Uncle with his Ferret - yellow socks

Too short to be haughty, too nutty to be naughty

Going on 40 - no electric shocks

The juice of the carrot, the smile of the parrot

A little drop of claret - anything that rocks

Elvis and Scotty, days when I ain't spotty,

Sitting on the potty - curing smallpox

Health service glasses

Gigolos and brasses

round or skinny bottoms

Take your mum to paris

lighting up the chalice

wee willy harris

Bantu Stephen Biko, listening to Rico

Harpo, Groucho, Chico

Cheddar cheese and pickle, the Vincent motorsickle

Slap and tickle

Woody Allen, Dali, Dimitri and Pasquale

balabalabala and Volare

Something nice to study, phoning up a buddy

Being in my nuddy

Saying hokey-dokey, singalonga Smokey

Coming out of chokey

John Coltrane's soprano, Adi Celentano

Bonar Colleano

Bump

Things that go 'bump' in the night

Should not really give one a fright.

It's the hole in each ear

That lets in the fear,

That, and the absence of light! 

Spike Milligan

Diddling - the essense of Man?

"Diddling - or the abstract idea conveyed by the verb to diddle - is sufficiently well understood.  Yet the fact, the deed, the thing diddling, is somewhat difficult to define.  We may get, however, at a tolerably distinct conception of the matter in hand, by defining - not the thing, diddling in itself - but man, as an animal that diddles"

Edger Allen Poe - Diddling (1850)
